Tasks , ruless and protocols

Yes there is a difference.

Tasks are one time things that need not be repeated on a regular bases. A task can be assigned as a punishment. Writing of lines is a punishment task though I never use it unless coupled with a strange way of writing such as placing the pen or pencil in the ass or vagina and have them write their name a few times rather fun to watch . A task can be to write a story wear a thong backwards for an hour or go shopping. It can be pleasurable it is just not some thing that repeats without instruction from the DOm . It is usually a physical thing making something or going somewhere.

Rules cover off when the Dom is there or not. Every morning you take a shower if you miss your shower because you are running late well you broke a rule. I have a rule on underwear. A slave is not allowed to wear any if they think there is the slightess possibility of seeing me . Slaves are not allowed to be late. Slaves must be naked in their houses when possible those are rules. Rules guide actions

Protocols guide interaction. How does a slave address another Dom , when do they. How and when do they greet their Dom. Asking permission to enter or leave the room or presence of their Dom. Protocols covering speech ,parties when we are out and when slave is alone with me. When I have a stable then they have protocols when they are together

I give task with deadlines, I have rules that are set in place to keep everything as black and white as it can be. Any infraction to the tasks ,the rule or protocols and punishments follow.

Yes there are rules and protocols governing that also. I of course use punishment tasks for minor infractions.
